I'm not trying to start a flame war but this is an interesting issue. As I see it, an issue presents itself where furloughees are offered recall not only once but twice and refuse recall each time. Now throw in newhires into the mix and a strong argument could be presented before a judge that newhires now trump furloughees who were offered employment and refused. Of course this doesn't have anything to do with the right to recall but rather where someone would be placed on the integrated seniority list.
